FINANCIAL AND MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING
1. Explain any two accounting concepts with example?
Ans. Concepts are the basic assumptions or conditions up on which
the science of accounting is based. There are five basic concepts ofaccounting namely
Business entity concept,
Going concern concept,
Money measurement concept,
Periodicity concept and
Accrual concept.
Business separate entity concept:
The essence of this concept is that business is a separate entity and
different from the owner or the proprietor. This is true in the case allforms of organization. If X starts business, he should not mix up his
personnel properties with that of the business. When he invests his
funds into the business, it is regarded as capital to the business andcapital is a liability from the business point of view. If X withdraws any
money fro the business, it is detectable form the capital and to thatextent the liability of the business towards the owner is reduced. On
the other hand, if the proprietor withdraws money form the business
for business purposes, then it is treated as expenditure to thebusiness. This legal separation between business and ownership is
kept in mind while recoding the transactions in the books of business.
Going concern concept
The fundamental assumption is that the business entity will continue
fairly for a long time to come. There is no reason why an enterpriseshould be promoted for a short period only to liquidate the business in
the foreseeable future. This assumption is called Going concernconcept. For this reason accountants value fixed assets on historical
cost method. Had the business been setup to last for short period,
fixed assets should have been valued at a market price. Besides, goingconcern concept provides for amortization of the cost of fixed assets
over the lifetime of the assets. For example, an entrepreneurpurchases a plant for Rs. one crore and it has a life of 10 years. During
this period, he sets aside every year certain funds from the income of

the business so that it would help him for replacement of the asset atthe end of ten years. This process of amortization presupposes that
the enterprise will continue to do business fairly for long time.

b. prepaid expenses
Ans.
a. Out standing expenses:
Expenses due but not paid are known a outstanding expenses.Wages, salaries, rent, commission etc payable in the current month
are paid in the following month. If the final accounts are prepared for
the year ending 31st December, then the expenses payable forDecember will be paid in January of next year. The extent to which the
amount belongs to the current year but payable in the next year iscalled outstanding expenses. To record that aspect, the journal entry
drawn in the journal proper is:
Concerned Expenses account Dr
To outstanding expenses account.
Outstanding expenses account indicates liability for the current yearand it will appear in the balance sheet.
b. Prepaid expenses:
Expenses paid in advance are regarded as prepaid expenses. Prepaidexpenses form an asset and therefore prepaid expenses account is
debited. For example, insurance premium is paid from April, 2004 toMarch, 2005; and the amount is Rs. 3600. The financial year ends by
31st December, 2004. Therefore the premium relating to Jan, Feb. andMarch of 2005 Rs. 900 is said to have been paid in advance. To record
this internal adjustment, the entry is:
Prepaid Expenses account Dr 900
To insurance account 900Note that outstanding or prepaid expenses accounts are regarded as
personal accounts.
